HESI A2
HESI A2 Grammar Practice Exam 2024 Questions
Question 1 of 5
Identify the grammatically correct sentence.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct sentence is 'Which one do you want?' Choice A is grammatically correct as it forms a question using 'which' to inquire about a specific choice. Choices B, C, and D contain errors in phrasing or grammar. Choice B includes a misspelling of 'want,' choice C uses 'whose' incorrectly, and choice D incorrectly combines 'who' and 'is' without proper context.
Question 2 of 5
Scissors should never be ___________ by the handle.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: 'Carried' is correct because 'should never be' requires the past participle form of the verb 'carry' to complete the sentence properly. The sentence is in the passive voice, indicating that the action is being done to the scissors, not by them. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not form the correct past participle form needed in this context.
Question 3 of 5
The child cried, 'I want to do it ____________.'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: In this sentence, the correct reflexive pronoun is 'myself' as it reflects the action back onto the subject. 'I want to do it myself' means the child wants to do something on their own without assistance from others. Choice A 'Mine' is a possessive pronoun and doesn't fit in the context of the sentence. Choice B 'Me' is an object pronoun and doesn't show the action reflecting back on the subject. Choice D 'Me self' is not a correct form of a reflexive pronoun in English.
Question 4 of 5
She was so mad at her boyfriend, she __________ on him when he called.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: 'Hung up' is correct because it is the proper phrasal verb used when referring to ending a phone call. In this context, the sentence implies that the woman ended the call abruptly due to being angry. 'Yelled' and 'Screamed' both suggest vocalizing loudly, which doesn't fit the situation described. 'Speak' is incorrect as it should be 'spoke' for proper verb tense agreement.
Question 5 of 5
To be admitted to the university, he ________ to make an application by May 15.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: Has.' In this sentence, 'he' is singular, so the verb should also be singular. 'Has' is the correct form of the verb for the third-person singular subject 'he.' The verb 'have' is plural and does not agree with the singular subject. 'Might' and 'should' are modal verbs that do not fit the context of the sentence requiring a simple verb form.
